Right? and we barely touched it! Felt so entirely blessed to be there. With an old senior dog and a sweet seven year old hound — we made our way around to the best of our ability and it was nothing short of magical!! Thank you Krissy. oxox
This is such a loving tribute to both time and place. Hubby and I are heading to AZ in a couple weeks to weekend with long lost friends. We’ve known them 34 years or so and want to reconnect. We won’t be ‘swinging by’ California this trip as originally planned because of family commitments but hoping some of us could have a meet and greet at a later date.
Cori, this is such great news! I am so glad you get to have a break with your hubby and go to AZ to visit old friends! We were amazed that it’s only 6.5 hours for us to drive, from SoCal, and why we hadn’t been to Prescott before? Only so much time and money. We spend a lot of our time going to Oregon to visit my mum. I really hope that one day several of us here will get to meet up and celebrate our friendships! Travel safe and enjoy every minute. What part are you going to?
Beautiful road trip! Thank you for taking us with you, Deborah! I really like those footsteps at the end as the wonderful music fades out and we are lifted up through the rock passage into the expanse of the Arizona sky.
Thank you so much Heidi!! It means the world that you watched it! I was in awe. I loved every minute of being there and we barely touched upon the beauty this state has to offer! We became the ultimate critter people and got a stroller for our senior “Jack.” It really enabled us to get around with our hound, who is only seven and loves to walk. Jack just tuckers out faster — but loves his new “hopper bus.” Hop on hop off! ha ha! I was really hopeful about the sky too and kept watching the weather. After about four days it turned to that great Oregon sky we know! Then I went camera crazy. ox
That's great about getting a critter hopper bus for Jack. Did you get a particular model? I'd like to do that for Jojo now that the weather is improving.
Loved Arizona when I was there sometime way back when in my travel agent days. Hot ? Sure, but the sky was so clear and the surroundings clean and pure. It was a great weekend. This brought it all back. Thank you.
Oh how cool Ken! You were a travel agent? That’s awesome! It is a gorgeous landscape and true what you say. Clean and pure - especially out where we were in Prescott and driving all around there and to Sedona. The downtown of Sedona is worse than Disneyland - so we didn’t stop - just drove and drove. I’m so glad you enjoyed this. Hope this finds you doing well. ox
It is such a gorgeous landscape Charlotte! We barely touched upon it - but were so blessed to make our way around with our old senior dog (Jack) and our hound (Bea) — like we did. We became “those people” with a dog stroller for Jack - and it gave us the ability and access we needed in some areas. Plus comfort for Jack. We can’t wait to go back!
Arizona! Beautiful ! looks like it is near Sedona, Such a beautiful and mystical place. Loved going there when my brother lived in Flagstaff and my Aunt in Yuma. love you my sweet beautiful friend. oxoxoxox
Yes, we based ourselves in Prescott and drove out from there. Sedona is gorgeous, but too crowded in town. We barely touched on it. Having the dogs made it harder to see things closeup - but Slide Rock Park was amazing and we took them through there! Never been to Flagstaff or Yuma! Definitely been to the Grand Canyon a long time ago - almost went this time - but we did get to Williams! Thank you dear friend! ox
Yes, Grand Canyon was on my Bucket list My Brother Brother Wes' best friend from Grade school lived in Williams, We rode a train to the Canyon. it was so much fun. both of them moved to the Seattle area a few years ago. love you my sweet friend. oxoxoxox
This is so gorgeous, Deb. Wow. What a wonder is God’s earth. And so is your beautiful poetry ❤️
Thank you so much Jenn. To think we barely touched upon Arizona and yet we were so filled up with awe! ox
That is amazing. There is so much in this world to explore and find awe in; it’s amazing. I’m so glad you got to go.
Just beautiful. What a magnificent place, both in what is God-made and man-made. <3

Phoenix
Couple hours from Prescott (but well worth the drive!!)
Our friends are very active so they might already have that on the agenda.
What a beautiful memory of 40 years together :)
Thank you mama! We had the best time exploring. What a beautiful place. Can’t wait to go back someday. Love you. oxox
